I've found a shedding blade is perfect for bunny moult. The teeth are tiny
so it doesn't get near the skin and it does a great job of pulling out all
the loose hair.

Poor Jumpy bunny. :( He's a long hair, and nothing works except a wire
brush. I tried a zoom groom. It did NOTHING! :( Jump hates the brush.

:( His hair tangles and knots and has to be brushed out. Merlin's not

a problem.

I haven't managed to convince Nibbler to agree to that - he bites the
vacuum and chases it away. He doesn't mind when i go over him w/ a lint
roller, though, and that pulls out all his lose hair. I think the best
thing, though is a rubber curry brush, like a zoom groom or similar -
picks up gobs of hair and doesn't hurt his skin!

Bob is moulting like nothing on earth. I reckon there's enough fluff coming out of him to make a whole new bunny. He's
shedding it in a nice even coat all over his body. I keep trying to pluck bits of it out but he gets shirty at me,
storms off and gives me a hard stare whenever I go near him. He's grunted a few times and boxed me when I touched his
back leg. (Obviously an area I'm not to go near!!) I shall ask one of the boys to hold him tonight and see if I can
comb a bit out as I'm somewhat worried about the quantity he must be swallowing. When I stroke him he's surrounded by a
cloud of fluff and it gets into my eyes! He doesn't have any evidence of mites, he has just completed a course of
treatment for them, so it must be just a moult. I don't recollect a big moult like this before. My carpet keeps
changing colour and my vacuum cleaner cant keep up!!
